At the  subquantum level, the level in which the quantum potential operated, location ceased to exist.  All points in space became equal to all other points in space, and it was meaningless to speak of anything as being separate from anything else.

Evolving our consciousness is not something we do only for ourselves - it is something we also do for others...for all others, and for the earth.  Because we open up and let our body and mind feel the ties with others and with nature, we change ourselves, and change others around us.  When a sufficient number of people pray or meditate together, or find another path to evolve their consciousness, other people are affected as well.  More sick people heal, divorce and suicide rates drop, crime and violence diminish.  When many people open up, a powerful force develops - a leap of consciousness takes place...

For too long, we have believed that the divine is outside us.  This belief has strained our longing disastrously.  This is so lonely since it is human longing that makes us holy.  The most beautiful thing about us is our longing;  this longing is spiritual and has great depth and wisdom.  If you focus your longing on a faraway divinity, you put an unfair strain on your longing.  Thus it often happens that the longing reaches out towards the distant divine, but, because it over-strains itself, it bends back to become cynicism, emptiness or negativity.  This can destroy your sensibility.  Yet we do not need to put any strain on our longing.  If we believe that the body is in the soul and the soul is divine ground, then the presence of the divine is completely here, close with us.

John O'Donohue

When our focus is toward a principle of relatedness and oneness, and away from fragmentation and isolation, health ensues

some mornings, a thick mist forms over the lake, obstructing the magnificent view of the rising sun...we know that the sun still shines with the same luster beyond the transient mist,,,,

To believe that past karma alone determines the course of one's life is to believe in fatalism.  The Buddha's doctrine of karma is not fatalism or predestination but determinism..
